Set out on Monday on my quest to be in San Antonio, Texas by one o'clock today. Natalie will be flying landing and waiting for a ride. Then we will go to meet our host family in New Braunfels, a town we enjoy. The Newk's Tennis Center will host this 50K tourney, our second year. Last time I checked, our gal was 3 out of the main draw, so she may still get it.
After enjoying the southern snowballs of fall*, my first stop was in Memphis. Had a chance to meet Lynn, Steven, Rhys and Jason, my cousins-in-laws. Hooked up with Lynn about a year ago via Facebook, so was looking forward to face to face time and her homemade Polish sausage. An added bonus was meeting the men in Lynn's life, great guys indeed....what a fun loving family. Sidenote....anyone in Memphis area wanting homemade Polish sausage let me know and I will get you Lynn's contact info, her side business.
The second stop was to be Little Rock but those plans changed. So Dallas was next. I was invited to stay with a great gal who I fondly call Sherry #2. Her family, Dick, Nathan and Jessica helped to make me feel right at home. We had a great visit, #2 has a great sense of humor. Highlighted with the yodeling pickle that she shared with me. Many giggles had by all!
A special lunch with a Baylor grad and local lawyer. He is a great supporter of sports and wealth of knowledge. I'm def hoping that convo will help open some doors for Natalie and sponsorships. >>>>insert prayers here<<<<<<<
After lunch I made my way to Waco, Texas. Hitting what I call the "wall of travel", I was ready for bed soon after dinner. Needing to head to San Ant brings me to the end of this blog. Love and Blessings .....Sherry!
